Materials Frit
Frits are made by melting mixes of raw materials, quenching the melt in water, grinding the pebbles into a powder. Frits have chemistries raw materials cannot.
Typecodes Frit
A frit is the powdered form a man-made glass. Frits are premelted, then ground to a glass. They have tightly controlled chemistries, they are available for glazes of all types.

Mechanisms

Glaze ColorFrits with very high alkali and little or no alumina can develop these colors well. However they have very high thermal expansion so it is difficult to get them to fit most bodies.
